“We don’t comment on speculation,” Matthew Clyburn, spokesman for Aetna, said Tuesday morning. “We remain headquartered in Hartford, and we’re committed to our employees here, who continue to be an important part of our future.”

Aetna has about 6,000 workers in Connecticut with the heaviest concentration in Hartford.
